These days, Scottsdale has no shortage of Asian restaurants, but back when Roy’s Scottsdale opened, it wasn’t nearly as ubiquitous.
Now the place is a local institution, and believe it or not, it’s celebrating its tenth anniversary. Founder and James Beard award-winning chef Roy Yamaguchi will be in town tomorrow, February 28, joining a few local chefs to create a special celebratory dinner.
Check out the menu:
— Spicy barbecued grilled Mexican prawns (chef Steve Butler, Fleming’s Scottsdale)
— Pan-seared Hawaiian moi (chef Mako Segawa, Roy’s Desert Ridge)
— Scallops with pork belly and sobresada sauce (Aaron May, Sol y Sombra)
— Olive-oil-poached curried culotte steak (chef Roy Yamaguchi)
— Menage a trois of chocolate (chef Erin Goldman, Roy’s Scottsdale)
Wines from Robert Hall will be paired with each course. Dinner is $90 per person, plus tax and tip, and reservations are required. Call 480-905-1155 for info. Roy’s is located at 7001 N. Scottsdale Road.
